i am a miserable person. The drive to games is too far and I can't justify spending the money renting a hotel or air BNB for 300 bucks a night minimum 3 nights 6-7 times a year, plus food, plus tickets, plus donation, plus gas. I'm poors, but I also understand 10k today is likely worth 70,000 thirty years from now if invested in something like a broad index fund like the S&P.

The idea of paying good $$ to sit on a bleacher next to random people, and wait in long arse lines for concessions and bathrooms, just isn't for me anymore.

College stadiums waited way too long to up the amenities in their stadiums like pro stadiums have. Colleges were more worried about bigger than better, and it is biting them on the arse.

Take Ole Miss for example, we just spent a shite ton of $$ bowling in our North Endzone with nothing but bleachers. We don't even need that thing now. We could have left it empty and just been a horseshoe and seat about 55k. That is all we need.
